More Summer Adventures

Caleb and Tyler got to go all alone to North Carolina for two whole weeks. Daddy was gone on "medium work" so Mommy decided it would be good timing to let them go spend time with both sets of grandparents. Aunt Katie had to go to Raleigh for the day so she drove all 3 boys down to meet up with Grandpa to send off the two big boys for week 1 of their adventure. Garett was very sad he didn't get to go along (maybe next year!) but he was a good helper and riding companion for his Aunt Katie. Lucky for Mommy & Sophie, Aunt Katie and Garett returned with 3 more people to enjoy the weekend with us!

Nana, Aunt Sarah & Lily came to visit. Aunt Sarah & Uncle Richard had a wedding to attend in Williamsburg so Lily was going to hang out for the weekend and we convinced Nana at the last minute to come along! (Not hard to do when you have cute grandkids to bribe her with!) On Saturday, we all loaded up to head to Williamsburg to drop Aunt Sarah off to meet Uncle Richard for the wedding. After we dropped her off, the rest of us grabbed some yummy snow cones and did some shopping. After our shopping adventures we headed towards Virginia Beach and made a stop for a yummy crab dinner. We got home late and all 3 kiddos slept very well that night!

Caleb & Tyler got to have many fun adventures while in North Carolina. They spent their first week with Grandpa and Grandpa then the second week they spent with Nana and Paca. Tyler got to have special birthday celebrations with each of them during their visits. They also got to visit museums and went to a baseball game. They seemed to have a great time on each of their visits, but Mommy sure was glad to get them back! It was much quieter without them around :)

Mommy, Aunt Katie, Garett & Sophie made the trip down to Asheboro to pick up the missing monkeys. But before they left, Mommy and Aunt Katie ran their first 5k at the zoo! It's been a busy couple of weeks but we're ready to get back to our routine. We have to go home and get everything ready for Daddy to come home!
